The Neva Midget House was in the perfect location, walkable to all town restaurants, stores and theater. We fell in love with Manteo and you will too, don't miss a chance to visit. The house was perfect, very clean and well equipped. The antique furniture takes you back in time yet had all of the modern amenities needed. SUPER comfy beds and a GREAT shower. We cant wait to visit again soon. Parking is on street directly in front of the house or the side street, it was easy and space was always available. The owner was very attentive and helpful with suggestions for local attractions. Don't miss the Lost Colony Play! The beach is about an 8 minute drive and if you like a more secluded beach experience, try Coquina. You can drive on the beach or walk to your spot. We enjoyed everything and there is no lack of things to do. Steeped in history, great food and endless fun. I would highly recommend the Neva Midget house for your next or first visit to Manteo. ##### Heidi P. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JoAnn A.

Like stepping through a time warp into someone's 1940 home - very cool. Was fun to read about Mrs. Midgett(e?). The cottage is more spacious than we expected from the pictures and was very comfortable. Worked out perfectly for us and our pup. Manteo itself is a refreshing, relaxing change from the strip retail frenzy of the main Outer Banks (nice to be able to walk down to the waterfront, grab a bite or a drink, check out the old houses along the way, etc) - on the other hand, turn the other direction down to Cape Hatteras National Seashore and everything is lovely and natural. Keep in mind there are only a handful of restaurants in Manteo itself. The first night we wandered randomly into NouVines wine bar (which is pet friendly) - what a great and interesting wine selection! Friendly owners, relaxing atmosphere; in the end, we never made it elsewhere for dinner (they have a charcuterie plate). Very friendly young woman named Katie B was singing and playing guitar (she's quite good and fun to chat with). Olives (Greek) is a great spot for lunch (not open for dinner). Aqua in Duck was another great lunch spot, nice chill atmosphere outside - only problem was the traffic getting to Duck. Got takeout from 1587 Restaurant the next night (no outdoor seating., so no doggie option), which was excellent. Other restaurants for some reason were either closed or had their patio closed. Decided to eat at home the next couple nights, so went to Fresh Catch Seafood in Wanchese - it's the real deal! Crazy fresh tuna steaks for one dinner and shrimp for another! We had a great stay here and hope to be back again! ##### Dominic S. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Derek W.

It is also located a short drive (about 10 minutes to the closest) from several beaches just across the bridge.
